SeaDeck claims to be a ‘floating oasis’ and a ‘unique venue with nothing else quite like it in the world,’ on its website.
But the event was forced to finish early when emergency services were called to the vessel around 8pm after a man was found unconscious.
The boat docked at wharf in Athol Bay where NSW Ambulance paramedics managed to stabilised the 28-year-old before taking him to Royal North Shore hospital.
When police boarded the vessel they were told by security guards that another 28-year-old man had urinated on deck.
The man allegedly spat on one of the officers as they were trying to arrest him.
The raucous boat part was attended by around 400 people including this woman who appears to have had a baby 10 weeks ago
Revellers enjoyed views of the Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. There is no suggestion that any of the men in this photo overdosed or urinated on a police officer

The boat was escorted back to King Street Wharf by police and the other passengers were told to disembark.
Footage from 7News showed people slowly making their way off of the vessel after police shut down the party. An inspection of the boat was taken out.
Tickets for the even ranged from $50 to $2,000 for a table. It is not clear whether revellers will get a partial refund after the event finished early.
